First of all, Thank you for giving this opportunity of presenting my knowledge with you all, hope this is helpful to learn something regarding biometric technology
2. Overview
What is Biometrics?
Why Biometrics?
Types of Biometric Recognition
Applications of Biometric Systems
Advantages
Disadvantages
3. What is Biometrics?
Automated method for recognizing individuals based on
measurable biological and behavioral characteristics. The
term biometric is basically derived from the Greek word
“Bio” means life and “metric” means to measure
4. Why Biometrics?
Biometrics cannot be lost , stolen or forgotten. The biometric
is consistent and permanent.
Biometric recognition provides a strong link between an
individual and a claimed identity
Biometric itself cannot be socially engineered, shared or
used by others
6. Finger Print Recognition
A fingerprint sensor is an electronic device used to
capture a digital image of the fingerprint pattern .
This captured image called live scan this live scan
is digitally processed to create a biometric
template(a collection of extracted features) which
is stored and used for matching.
7. Facial Recognition
A Face recognition is the way to comparing
selected facial features from the image and
the face database
Face recognition can also identify slightly
different placing of the eyebrows , The
width of eyes with the position/ size/shape.
8. Voice Recognition
Voice recognition is with the help of special
voice recognition software , tiny differences
in each person’s voice can be noted , tested
and authenticated to only allow access to the
person that has the right tone , pitch , and
volume of voice.
9. Iris Recognition
Iris recognition measures the iris
pattern of the eye i.e. the colured
part of the eye that surrounds the
pupil.
The iris recognition analyzes
features like rings , furrows and
freekles existing in the coloured
tissue .
10. Retina Recognition
Retina recognition is used to map
the unique patterns of persons
retina.
Retinal biometrics is a sophisticated
means for identifying People by the
pattern of blood vessels on the
retina.
11. Applications
Database Access
Recording time and Attendance
Banking/credit
Computer/network
Enrollments
Immigration purposes
13. Disadvantages
Lack of standardization
Costly
False acceptance and rejections
While the reliability and the accuracy of biometric
devices continues to improve
15. Conclusion
Biometrics is a very interesting and exciting field that
has be growing exponentially in recent years.
The wide variety of physically unique traits our
bodies give us will soon allow us to live in very
secure password-less world.
